About Mloukhieh

Mloukhieh is a traditional Middle Eastern and African stew made from finely chopped jute leaves, known for their slightly bitter and earthy flavor. This dish is commonly prepared in countries like Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, and Egypt, with variations in spices and accompaniments. Typically, Mloukhieh is cooked with chicken or beef, garlic, coriander, and a flavorful broth, and served alongside rice or flatbread. Rich in nutrients, jute leaves are high in vitamins A, C, and E, as well as fiber and antioxidants, which support immune health and digestion. The dish is low in cholesterol and can be made heart-healthy, depending on the choice of protein and cooking methods. However, some recipes may include high amounts of oil or butter, which can increase calorie content. Mloukhieh offers a delicious and nutritious way to enjoy a classic dish rooted in centuries-old culinary traditions.
